To all whom it may concern Be it known that 1,*PETER JOSEPH 'IILLMANN, of Trenton, in the county of Mercer, and State of New Jersey, have invented :t new and useful Improvement in Door-Pulleys; and I do hereby declare that the following is n full and exact description ofthe sinne, reference being;r hnd to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.

Figure 1 represents a, door closed, with my improve ment attached.

Figure 2 represents n. door half open.

Similar letters of reference denote like parts.

My invention consists of ztweight sliding on n square bnr on the inner side of n door,` to which weight is nttnched n cord passing through n pulley at the upper end of the slide-bur, und secured to the casing. This bnr may be plztced in the centre, or near the outeredge oi the door.

lo en'nble others to make use of my invention, I will proceed to describe the same.

A is :t weight, which mny be enst solid or hollow, and then londe-d to suit the size of the door, having n, square cavity longitudinally, so as to lit the slide-bnr C, which is secured to the door :tt each end by cnrs b b.

B is a, pulley on the upper end of slide-bnr C, constructed with a swivel, to prevent the cutting or wearing of the cord.

a is :L- cord, fastened to weightA on the inner side, passing tl'irough the upper enr, over the pulley B, und zittnched to the casing of the door by staple c.

This device can be applied ton-ny kind of door, and

`is more effec-tive, Iand less expensive than any other y door-pulley now in use, nud not liable to get ont of A witnesses.
